Six year veteran of the OPP convicted of driving drunk while off duty.

(Tiny Township) - A six-year OPP veteran has been convicted of impaired driving.

33-year-old Constable Lana Gauvin is with Huronia West OPP, and she was charged after a crash in Tiny township in July.

Police officers were called to a single vehicle collision on Crossland Road, where the vehicle left the road and rolled onto its side into the ditch.

The driver was arrested at the scene and charged with impaired driving and driving with a blood-alcohol level above the legal limit.

Gauvin was off-duty at the time of the crash.

She was convicted of impaired driving when she appeared in Midland court on Thursday.

The charge of driving with a blood alcohol level above the legal limit was withdrawn.

Gauvin received a 12 month driving prohibition and a fine of 1,750 dollars.
